Are people trying reverse psycology by saying they don't want power armor? :confused:

Some people just are not interested in seeing it. I personally want there to be a heavy armor that doesn't require training (NCR Salvaged does not count). Maybe a Leather Armor, Reinforced Mk II. :D

Why would there be new power armor in Death Valley? (or where ever the hell it will be) There were only so many kinds made, and they just don t grow new on trees.

I don't want forced perks like in OWB.
I don't want meat sponges like in OWB.
I don't want a failsafe ending like in Honest Hearts.
I don't want a DLC that focuses on exploration over quests.

Ulysses. I'm hoping he remains mysterious, and all we find are some of his holotape messages which lead into the next Fallout game.

Spoiler
Kidding!

Start a new game and take the Logan's Loophole trait.
Didn't people already say that in your topic?

I dont want there to be that much humour in this DLC we've got OWB for that I want it to be dark like dead money and as serious as honest hearts.
Its about time I wrap things up its been 7 years in game time since my courier got shot in the head (its 2288)

The only thing I don't want to see in Lonesome Road is the only thing I'm 100% certain will be in it...

I don't want:
- Bomb Collars :stare:
- Boring story
- Short story
- Long story
- A little amount of new weapons and armor.

MENTATS!

What's wrong with Mentats and a Long Story?

+1

I hate the fact they used the Sink upgrades in OWB to be an excuse for a quest. I ended up revisiting every lab 3-6 times. It was an phenomenal amount of time to also get all of these upgrades because of all the loading.

Or the quest in OWB were only when you had to talk to the Scientist, what a waste of great potential.

All in all, I want real [censored] quest, not a 5 second half assed job. Characters, combat, and a story. Real. Quest. Noa

I don't want a weak Ulysses (if we must battle him)
I don't want to have to kill Ulysses
I don't want a short DLC
I don't want a focus on light armor
I don't want glitches
I don't want 9+ fetch quests
I don't want an anticlimactic story

I would like a reason to return to the Divide post - MQ.

One "new" suit of power armor would be fine with me, considering there hasn't been any power armor in the DLCs. I suggest they use the suit from Fallout Tactics (http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Advanced_power_armor_%28Fallout_Tactics%29)


I don't want the MWBoS armor touching this game without good reason.

Let it shine in FO4, pumped up with a new graphics engine.

But seriously...

Hoo boy, you don't know how DLC's work do you? :spotted owl:

Ehhh, 2-D characters. I'm sincerely hoping Ulysses is a complex and emotional character, not some 'hurr durr I bad' kind of character.

Aw whats the matter, someone put salt in your vodka? :tongue:

I think a balance between exploration and deep quests would be ideal, and most side quests in DLC (including Fallout 3) are exploration. Some of them are fun because of it, like ingot collection in the Pitt. But yes, Obsidian seem to be falling into this trap where the quests all just seem like fetch quests, fetch team, escort team, deal with team, climix for Dead Money, enter Zion, scripted moments, collect stuff, deliver stuff, prepare things, climix for Honest Hearts, get lobotomized, 15 minutes of dike jokes and exposition, collect stuff, do optional crap, climix for Old World Blues. Maybe Lonesome road will feature nothing but fetch quests? At least when Fallout 3 had main quests to show off the environment it was more like a manhunt, and there was only two fetch quests, then the climix, and even then there's much to be done to progress to the second fetch quest.

Although to be somewhat fair, Zion was nice to explore, it would seem many places managed to avoid being nuked without defense systems in place. Though the Sierra Madres' blood red filter and inhospitable environment can put you off from wanting to explore except in the most dire of times, and Big MT's brown, grey and general blandness just makes exploration a chore.

Back on the topic of fetch quests. I guess if you strip it all away all quests are fetch quests to a certain degree, but it should never be so blatently obvious.

That sounds like an unfounded fear for Ulysses. He's already a complex character and we only have a few paragraphs of dailouge for him. He's not some Frumentari scumbag, he has come into contact with many differant people and many differant view points he has a past with the Courier which the Courier by some miracle forgot about and has an obsession with the Old World and the perfect way to build a nation. Yet we still know little about him, but we know he's not some 2-D endboss like Salt-Upon-Wounds or the Omnicidal Elija who's only motivations were "I'm an omnicidal/genocidal bastard with no morals and only loyal to my own faction and I wish to conquer, and now I must laugh, MWAHAHAHAHAAAA!".

Nah, I'd say it's quite founded. I mean heck, this has been built up to for almost a year, it's understandable to worry the teases were better than the actual person.

I don't want to see 50 complaint threads about .

I don't want to see bullet sponge enemies, but given that people in this very thread are asking for harder enemies, I'll say it again (as I have said so many times before)... the Gamebryo engine isn't going to give you harder enemies, only bullet sponges. I am sure the game developers wish this were otherwise, but it isn't. Asking for harder enemies will only result in bullet-sponge enemies. Undoubtedly, inevitably, irrevocably, irritatingly, and a whole bunch of other words ending in "ly".

Apart from that, I hope it's large, chock full of explorey goodness, and has a good story. Like OWB, but with a more serious story line.

And if there's bomb collars I'll just about scream.

What I DO want is a clean, polished, out of the box Hunting Rifle that isn't falling apart like the piece of [censored] in the core game.
